Let's hear for BLUE everyone! All in favor?????????????? Blue gets my vote too. The proposal on the floor is:

BLUE WEEK - Monday July 13 - Sunday July 19

I'll give blue a shot. This one will be trickier, since blues tend not to be terribly flattering on me. A chance to go outside my comfort zone.

I messed up a bit today. I wanted to try my MAC x Pedro Lourenco True Red lipstick with my navy blue suit and cobalt blue shoes (walked with my flats as well) but I didn't grab anything else! Should have picked up NARS Rotonde blush at least! Applied the lipstick "all how" too lol

I feel like red lips need neutral eyes. So what a dilemma as I have gobs of neutrals. I picked the Guerlain Petrouchka palette. It's been so long since I used it that I forgot it had blushes in it too.

Armani Maestro foundation 10
Becca eye brightener and toffee and treacle concealers
Guerlain Petrouchka palette with top beigey gold as highlight, 3rd golden coppery shade on lid, 4th warm brown in crease
Mac Embark in outer V
Mac Uninterrupted Transition shade
Tom Ford liner pen for baby wings
Urban Decay Perversion tightliner
Chanel Le Volume mascara in black
Chanel les beiges Mariniere #2 as bronzer
Chanel les beiges coral blush stick
Chanel sunkissed highlighter
YSL Gloss Volupte 107 Bordeaux Sarouel from summer collection

I did a neutral-ish eye as well using one of the gold's from the MAC x Brooke Shield's palette and the brown for the crease. I used Sleek burnt orange red blush, LM Ritual Shimmer Bloc as highlight and Wet 'n' Wild's Purty Persimmon lipstick with MAC's Cherry lip pencil.

Okay, so this is what I found:
What about coral/orange, and a black/white/grey week? Food for thought.
Since we had already done Coral/Orange week, we'll start repeating colors after we've exhausted all the colors that
we like and/or can think of. So, we'll stick with blue after red week and then do black/white/grey week and /or break
them up and do a grey week, a smokey eye week----whatever our little hearts desire.

NICE Shars!!!! I have a dent in the gold E/S from my MAC Her Cocoa palette. I love that palette for constructing looks to go with bright lips. I just love gold E/S, period!!!

FOTD: same ELDW and powder combo as usual, added MAC Fever blush (quite a bit, was taking a new DMV photo), MAC PLW e/s in Sweet satisfaction ( @medgal you might want to look at this one if you like gold e/s) on lid, Uninterrupted in crease and Legendary Black in outer crease, blended well. NYX Slide On pencil, Jet Black on top lash line, UD 24/7 liner, Ultraviolet, on lower lash line, Rimmel Glam Eyes mascara, Extreme Black on upper and lower lashes, and on lips I wore the Armani liquid lipstick from the Sephora gift. @Shars, I promised to give my impressions of this lip product...let's just say I would never buy the full size. It never completely sets and fades way too easily. I ate a box of Boston Baked Beans ({that is ALL I have had to eat today) and you can already see my lips right through it. Had me at the DMV looking all haggard. I can get better performance out of a NYX Matte Lip Cream, to give you an idea.

I'm down with Blue.

I ran out of time for cutesy makeup today and only had time for MAC Prolongwear Powder and Clinique's Cola Pop, but I did get a red in!

And my JD Glow Highlighters came today so I'll wear Beyonce tomorrow.

So happy to see Bordeaux Sarouel get some love. Such a great shade!

I love the look of Cola Pop, but I'm afraid it'll look scary on me. Great choice!
